OK, so here I am jumping into the internet world of blogging. Since knitting is my passion I've decided that I should write about it. It's been with me since I was about 10 years old, knitting with pencils. Me and my bff, Sheila would knit headbands during recess at school. Can't remember if any of them were ever finished. I do remember them looking awfully dirty from the lead of the pencils we used. Thank goodness the skill stuck with me and I moved on to the wonderful aluminum needles that could be purchased at the local 5 & dime. Ha, ha most of you don't remember those! Yes, I'm a bonafide baby boomer and 5 & dimes existed when I was a kid.

About Me

I'm a flight attendant and a knitting instructor and love everything regarding the art of knitting. I've been knitting since I was 9 years old. Basically I am self-taught but with internet access my knitting skills have increased in the past 10 years. I encourage everyone to reach beyond your basic skills to learn a new technique. If one technique doesn't work for you, there's always another that may work better for you.
I also love to travel. In my travels I usually look for and find yarn shops. This blog will review some of the shops and things I find in my journeys.
Knit on my friends.
